I am basing this review on another kit that is similar from the same manufacturer, the only difference is that the one I have is the BM/BSM. These are very similar and might have a few differences here and there. Most fuselage pieces are boxed separately from the other parts. The bottom fuselage and nose portions are in separate boxes within the main box. The missiles are unique as they are molded in one piece as well as in box like the fuselage pieces. The detail is really great Be careful with the landing gear, especially the nose gear, its prone to breaking. It is made in a four part assembly. there is the two that are connected to the well, the lower portion and two part sleeve that goes over the lower and the part that connects to the well. The well is then put in before you connect the nose portion to the fuselage. The only detractor is that there is no way to show the detailed engine. As a 1/48 scale that is unique as usually they don't include the engine. The kit is 18 long and I would say about 10-12 wingspan. Paint call outs are primarily Federal Standard colors.
